Abstract:

This study, Phase II, completes the assessment of AIRTRANS, the automated guideway system located at the Dallas-Fort Worth Airport. The Phase I assessment report: "Assessment of Operational Automated Guideway Systems--AIRTRANS (Phase I)" (PB-261 339), covered concepts, history, technical evaluation, and performance through September, 1976. The work for Phase II was performed between June 1977 and June 1979, and has four main areas of coverage: (1) changes in system configuration including the addition of employee service and the modifications of the failure management and control systems; (2) the availability, reliability, and maintainability history of the system and its components; (3) the operational safety history of the system; and (4) a life cycle cost study of the system. Availability was not defined in the original AIRTRANS specification, and several definitions have been used.
